I have heard so many fun things about this book, so I wanted to give it a try! I received it in the mail, from www.paperbackswap.com.

RELEASE NOTES:

I had heard quite a bit about this book in different BCing communities, so I decided to give it a try. I didn't find it to be anything spectacular, although it was interesting how the horror of the story (Sheba's relationship with Connolly) was waxed over - ameliorated - by Barbara and her prim and proper story telling. As narrator, Barbara forced us into her worldview, of feeling compassionate for Sheba instead of outraged at her actions.

I am passing this along to a member of www.paperbackswap.com.

I received this through PBS. I have been excited to read it since Amazon recommended it.

Thanks!

POSSIBLE SPOILER!!

I thought this book was just ok. It seemed stagnant to me--there was no growth in the characters, and I have a real problem with the idea that neither Sheba nor Barbara seem to realize something terribly wrong occurred.
This will be sent to a PBS member.
